In the NKJ version:
Philippians 1:1 Paul and Timothy, bondservants of Jesus Christ, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:
1Timothy 3:1 This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work.
1Timothy 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach;
Timothy 1:7 For a bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money,
Plus in the KJ version:
1Peter 2:25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
The same word translated bishop in 1 Timothy 3:1 is translated "overseer" in Acts 20:28. A bishop, or overseer, is the same as an elder. The same men who are called elders in Acts 20:17 are called overseers in Acts 20:28 ( also Titus 1:5 and Titus 1:7).
Elders are the same as presbyters, for although the latter word is not found in the NT, the English word "elder" translates the Greek word presbuteros. Thus, the words "bishop," "overseer," "elder," and "presbyter" all refer to the same person.
The word "bishop" is in the King James Version of the Bible 6 times. It is in 6 verses.
Actually, no English word "Bishop" technically appears in the Bible, as the Bible is written in Greek. However, the word Episkopos appears several times. The word has been translated into several different English meanings, such as "overseer" or "elder". However, to say that episkopos is not best translated as Bishop is wrong. By the end of the 1st century the position of episkopos is already well documented by writings from the Apostolic Fathers, the leaders of the Church who learned from the Apostles themselves. The Apostles appointed men to carry on the Great Commission (just as the remaining eleven Apostles replaced Judas with Matthias by casting lots in Acts 1: 23-36). The position left to major overseers was apparently Episkopos: "In the works of the Apostolic Fathers, and Ignatius of Antioch in particular, the role of the episkopos, or bishop, became more important or, rather, already was very important and being clearly defined." Pretty much exactly the same meaning as Bishop today. It is no coincidence that the "episcopate" is the term used to define the collective of all the bishops in a Church, or the individual 'episcopate' of a Bishop (which is their office).
The King James Bible was created using the Masoretic text (OT), Textus Receptus (NT), The Bishop's Bible (1568), and the Geneva Bible (1560).

In 1538, King Henry VIII ordered that every church in the realm have a Bible translated into English. Henry's Bible was known as the Great Bible. The Bishop's Bible was a later revision of the Great Bible, shorn of its commentaries and footnotes.
Short answer? The priest (deacon, or Bishop) kisses the Lectionary following the proclamation of the Gospel because it is specified in the rubrics so to do. The rubrics specify this as he has just proclaimed the Word of God. And, as we all know, the Word of God, is Jesus Christ, Himself.
The abbreviation for the word 'Bishop' is Bp.
The Church Latin word for bishop is episcopus.
The French word for 'Bible' is "la Bible."
Yes, in English, the word "bishop" should be capitalized when it is part of a title or when used as a proper noun (e.g., Bishop John Smith).
